So this is what I’m eating six days this week with one day of food flexibility as I like to call it. I have noticed recently that when I do indulge in something different that my stomach and digestive system don’t necessarily agree with my choices and have no problems letting me know either. A lot of bloggers are experiencing this in one way or another and like them I’m doing something about it after seeing my naturopath on the weekend. Lift Health & Sport where I buy all of my supplements employs a variety of staff who are either nutritionists and/or naturopaths. So when I was there on the weekend picking up my supplements (Vital Greens & HMB) I asked about this very topic as well as my skin allergies. What I’ve been recommended to do is a three stage detox program each lasting two weeks. Unfortunately I’d already bought and prepared my food for this week so will start next week and document the process.
Someone mentioned a chocolate flourless cakes which immediately tweaked my interest, I am a girl after all. I’ve always wanted to try one so I checked out my recipe book collection, I was right there was one in my 80/20 Diet Cook Book. Next thing I knew I was at the supermarket buying the couple of ingredients that I didn’t have for them ready to cook up a storm in my kitchen, it’s been a while. Instead of baking a cake size I opted for a muffin size, which in my opinion is a much better portion size for us health and fitness ladies. I was happy with how the recipe turned out and liked the cake best, the chocolate topping was not to my liking and the defrosting raspberries were a little bit on the tart side for my taste buds. The remainder chocolate flourless muffins have been frozen for if/when the need may arise for that ‘food flexibility’. I’ll even post the recipe up at some stage on Fit for Comsumption.
Time to wrap this post up. I’m about to head outside on this beautiful autumn’s day for my afternoon cardio.
